Please find the Overview of the Potential Return to Expanded In Person for Cole and EGHS at this link. It is important that all parents/guardians complete and submit the “EGHS & COLE: Mode of Instruction for the Remainder of the 20-21 School Year” Survey that is linked in the Overview and below. Accurate information regarding mode of instruction (in-person or distance learner) is critical to district and school-based planning efforts. Thank you for taking the time to submit the survey.
At this time, as we consider making a transition to an expanded in person learning model, it is important to acknowledge that now is not the time to let our guard down. COVID-positive cases and responses to those cases will continue to be part of the mitigation efforts in our district. Collectively, we must continue with our collective commitment to taking the virus seriously and practicing universal mitigation strategies in all aspects of daily life.
